## FAQ

### What is generative AI used for in insurance?

Five clusters: quoting, client communication, voice (inbound and outbound), document handling, and policy analysis. The thread connecting them — generative AI excels at preparing humans to be more effective, not replacing them at the decision point.

### Is generative AI safe to use with client data in insurance?

Only when implemented inside an insurance-native platform with proper data isolation, HIPAA-aware handling for health and Medicare data, and CMS-compliant call retention. Generic AI tools that ingest client data into shared model contexts are not safe for insurance use.

### Will generative AI write policies that issue?

Generative AI does not write policies — carriers issue policies. Generative AI prepares the application, predicts the underwriting class, and accelerates the submission. The final issue is a carrier decision.

### Does generative AI work for Medicare agents?

Yes, with caveats. It handles inbound qualification, plan presentation, post-call documentation, and SOA scheduling. The licensed agent still owns the actual SOA and enrollment under CMS rules.

### What is the best generative AI platform for insurance agents?

Insurance-native platforms beat general-purpose tools every time because they are pre-trained on carrier underwriting manuals, CMS rules, and state DOI requirements. unLocked CRM ships all generative AI workflows pre-integrated for independent agents and agencies.
